Ingredients

1	shallot, peeled and minced
180 ml	white wine
8 tbsp	cold butter
1 tsp	fresh chervil, chopped
1 tsp	fresh chives, chopped
1 tsp	fresh parsley, chopped
	salt
12	unshucked oysters

Instructions

Preheat a grill. Put shallot and wine into a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat until reduced by half, 6–8 minutes.

Remove pan from heat. Whisk in butter, 1 tbsp at a time. Return pan briefly to lowest heat if sauce cools too much as you add the butter. Whisk in chervil, chives, and parsley and add salt to taste.

Grill oysters flat side up over hot coals until shells gape, 3–5 minutes. Discard any oysters that do not open. Pry off top shells, keeping oyster liquor (juices) from spilling, and cut lower muscles to release flesh. Arrange oysters in their shells on a platter. Spoon some sauce over each.
